''Dr Edgar Duckema'' welcomes AAP delegates

Something eggstraordinary went, um, down at the Hotel Kabuki in San Francisco yesterday. A strange ducklike figure was greeting members of California Chapter 1 of the American Academy of Pediatrics as they arrived for a meeting at the hotel.

He was "Doctor Edgar J. Duckema", reportedly a circumcision enthusiast and American Academy of Pediatrics Circumcision Task Force member, quacking and holding a sign saying "Welcome Circumcisers!"

Others, members of the Bay Area Intactivists, carried signs saying "Circumcision Anguish" and "Circumcision? Only Quacks Cut Healthy Children".

Only one question: where should the doctor send his bill?

Big Foreskin Pride contingents at GLBTI parades


Intactivist contingents at Pride parades were significantly bigger than last year.

Nearly 50 marched in San Francisco under the banner of Bay Area Intactivists:

In Toronto, the Star commented:
'The parade also included a group called Foreskin Pride, which advocates the right of people to choose whether or not they're circumcised. Its contingent featured several dozen completely naked and uncircumcised men, one of whom held a sign reading, “Foreskins Feel Really Good.”'

There was also a Foreskin Pride contingent in the Chicago Pride parade, and an Intactivist contingent in the San Diego Pride parade. Victoria BC will have a Foreskin Pride contingent in the Pride parade this Sunday, and Vancouver will have one in August. Indianapolis Pride was held on June 8, and included an Intactivist group.
